OK GO are set to release their upcoming 2010 Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky out on January 12th, next week. I remember when they released the awesome treadmill video from the 2005 Oh No album. I knew then we were set to see more innovative videos from them in the future.

So here’s a new one for you, an amazing video for the song WTF?

Did I mention Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, MGMT) is the producer of the new album?! What are you waiting for, it’s on sale for pre-order on Amazon, go grab it.

Top Albums of 2009

By: Charbarred | in: Music | 4 Comments



Don’t get too hung up on the numbers. They’re all excellent albums.

son-volt-american-central-dust
15. Son Volt  - American Central Dust
Classic Americana. Beautiful songwriting.

blakroc-blakroc
14. Blakroc - Blakroc
We don’t get enough real music in hip hop these days. Hope this trend continues.

atlas-sound-logos
13. Atlas Sound - Logos
Proving that not all bedroom albums are messy and half baked. A great headphones album.

neko-case-middle-cyclone
12. Neko Case - Middle Cyclone
Neko Case ups the ante with a bigger production that works well.

11. The Most Serene Republic - …And the Ever Expanding Universe
Challenging, complex and beautiful.

sonic-youth-the-eternal
10. Sonic Youth - The Eternal
The Youth get their groove back with Pavement’s Mark Ibold on bass. (Damn you Apple, I almost wrote iBold)

the_whitest_boy_alive-rules
9. The Whitest Boy Alive - Rules
Makes you feel like you’re in the same room with these guys.

cursive-mama-im-swollen
8. Cursive - Mama, I’m Swollen
Cursive takes a mellower approach. Not their best, but much better than most.

7. I Heart Hiroshima – The Rip
Simple raw emotion. You don’t get many bands like this these days.

au-revoir-simone-still-night-still-light
6. Au Revoir Simone - Still Night, Still Light
What can I say…so so sweet!

wilco-the-album
5. Wilco - Wilco (The Album)
Another masterpiece from Jeff Tweedy and co.

metric-fantasies
4. Metric - Fantasies
Mixing perfect pop with integrity.

built-to-spill-there-is-no-enemy
3. Built To Spill-There Is No Enemy
The songs are great…but as usual, it’s the guitars that really elevate this album.

andrew-bird-noble-beast
2. Andrew Bird - Noble Beast
Feels like this guy has saved all his best songs for this album.

dirty-projectors
1. Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orca
Convoluted, weird and amazing. A great achievement.

Homeless Creep

By: Kendall | in: Music | 2 Comments



Bouncing around on Stumble Upon I came across this video.  Satellite radio always puts some good original material up.  Opie andAnthony had this homeless guy come in to sing some lousy bumpers, only to discover the guy can actually sing.  This is one of the most interesting and heart touching covers I’ve heard in a while.  Enjoy!

Blur - No Distance Left To Run - The Documentary

By: Charbarred | in: Movies, Music | Leave a Comment



The trailer for the Blur reunion documentary “No Distance Left To Run” has hit the web. I’m actually more excited about this than the actual reunion tour (which I’ve missed). Not a lot of info on this film yet, but according to the trailer it’s out January 2010. Hopefully this will help nudge the guys in the right direction (you know, the direction of the studio…).
